I need help!! I am currently wearing Clinique's even better foundation in 03 ivory and I really want to try MACs foundations and I'm not sure what shade to get. NC35? I'm ordering online since I don't have a MAC store in my area.
 
Bobbi Brown Natural Finish Long Lasting Foundation - Natural 4
Revlon ColorStay - Natural Beige
Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation - 53 Light Beige
Chanel Perfection Lumiere - 30 Beige

Looking at this list, one thing's for certain... I'm quite beige. Haha.
 
I have fair skin with golden to neutral undertone. I currently use the following:
MAC Face and Body Foundation C1
MAC Mineralize Moisture Foundation NC15
Clinique Even Better in Ivory (VF-N) - a little too pink for me
Garnier BBcream Miracle Skin Perfector in Light/Clair (looks a little dark, but blends in well)

My preferred foundation is the the MAC Face and Body Foundation, but sometimes I would like something with a little more coverage. The MAC Mineralize Moisture Foundation appears very powdery and shows off lines in my face that I didn't know I had, despite primer. I would like to try one of the Asian BB creams, but I am concerned that they will be too pink or grey or that they will give me breakouts.
 
MAC pro longwear foundation in NW20(currently wearing)
Missha BB cream in shade 21
SKIN79 SUper BB cream
Bobbi brown oil free tinted moisturizer in Light
Bobbi Brown BB cream in Light
Bobbi Brown Luminous Moisturizing foundation in warm sand
Bobbi Brown Long wear even finish foundation in sand

Would like to try the MAC full coverage foundation
